Editor's note: China Daily senior reporters Chen Weihua and Huo Yongzhe on Thursday conducted an exclusive interview with Wang Shuping, chief representative of China's trade office in Haiti.
Q: How many Chinese people are still in Haiti and what have you done to assist them?
A: By the end of Thursday, we have successfully established contact with 53 Chinese people who are still in the shattered country, one of whom is from Taiwan. Among them, 48 are willing to return to China, and one from the multinational company Ericsson plans to stay longer if the security situation turns stable. Another four were deployed to a safe place but soon left without notifying us.
